Diabetics and the games they play

well, I’m a geek and and a mostly lame gamer. I play a PC online game call Lord of the Rings Online. Before that I played Everquest for several years.

I also have an Xbox 360, I usually use it to watch Netflix movies. Netflix on a streaming device is really great, I recommend it. My son plays alot of Xbox games and he can pretty much make me look like a 4 year old at the controls… sucks to be old and set in my ways. Damn new fangled gadgets!

What do other peeps play?

We got a Wii in the fall and I am hooked on Lego Star Wars! I LOVE it!!!

We also have the Xbox 350 and my husband and I plays Madden NFL and Tiger Woods Golf. Its fun!

I play World of Warcraft and I am totally hooked! lol I also love the old school PS2 games like Mario ect. I would love a new computer to so I could play the new Godfather game!

I don’t have a lot of electronic TV games. None, in fact. I have couple of hand-held games but nothing fancy. When I was married, my ex and I played lots of games with other couples. Games like Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly/, etc. It is so much more fun when you get the human back in the fun. We had many nights when we laughed so hard, my sides ached! I now have Deluxe Scrabble, Phase 10, Tri-Ominoes and others. The only problem is, now I don’t have anyone to play with! Siggggggggghhhhhhh!

Wanna come over for an evening of fun and games???

Hehe, I play The Sims and the SimCity games (PC). Also been playing Spore lately.

Don’t really play any new console games, but we still have an original Nintendo, Super Nintendo, and ColecoVision from when I was very little. They all still work…mostly!

game geek—u name it we’ve probably played it

started with Avalon Hill and SSI games–oh and a little thing called dungeons and dragons when it came in a zip-lock baggie-- a long time ago

we have xbox360 (toss up bewtween GOW2 and Rock Band as fav’s) and Wii now–still also play board games–in fact we started a game of Munchkin quest with or daughter yesterday (yes we passed the game geek gene on to both our children–hopefully a gift that keeps on giving)

Board Games !!! Yes !!! Every time the family gets together here we dive into our collection. Most of us get in on one game and play for hours. We always choose something we can all play. This is one of the big reasons everyone comes to my house. I have all the games and i make lots of appetizers (some that are safe for each of the different diets in this house) and have safe drinks for everyone. We have been doing this since the kids were small.

I play World of Warcraft, and participate in Guitar Hero competitions. My friends and I also do “game night” which is any board game, card game or video game.

Hehehehehe, I know what you mean about those new fangled gadgets!! about the only games I play are on My Space. like Mafia Wars, mobsters stuff like that. they are about as high tech as I get. LOL

I love snood. Haven’t played it in years though.

Did you ever see the snood cookies? I bought them for my best friend’s birthday one year. They weren’t too tasty, but they sure were cute!

Zod is the best :slight_smile:

My favorite is Balderdash because you get to make up definitions all the way through it You can put in the most outrageous things you want to say. There are several games (whose names i forget) that let you make up all kinds of stuff. I think that is why I love the games so much. You don’t have to be serious about anything and you laugh all day long. I definitely vote for us all getting together and playing all day or all weekend. I’ll bring some food and spend some of my time in the kitchen.

Pictionary. Mousetrap. Operation.
(I am too old and too fat for Twister.)

i play texas hold’em and xbox like nfl blitz and motocross racing

I am so guilty
PC…WOW and Warhammer but am so waiting for Guild Wars 2 … Also the sims 2
PS3…Tomb Raider (awesome awesome awesome) in case you were wondering , Drake (the male tomb raider) , Metal gear solid 4 (amazing mind blowing graphics) ,DDR and rock band, soon to be killzone for DH
Xbox…Mass Effect (one of the best stories out there very creative) and fallout 3 kind of a let down to much like resident evil

When GW 2 comes out I may end up never seeing the light of day again :slight_smile: There is a rumor that Sony may bring back Parasite Eve if that happens I might have learn to play 2 games at once :stuck_out_tongue:
I am way beyond a game geek

Be loved
